Team captain obligations:

Team captain obligations:

All team captains must stay up to date on the forum. The tournament administration recommends every captain follows the “rules and information” thread for the specific tournaments they are participating in, in case of critical changes.

Rule violations must be posted within 15 minutes after the round ends, in the “rules enforcement” thread, in the specific forum section. After the deadline passes, reports will be deemed invalid.

The team captain is responsible for his team: only a team captain can make requests on behalf of his team on the forum.

Captains and players are advised to use the in-game reporting system to report foul language, rather than the official rules enforcement thread.

Vehicle limitations:

Vehicle limitations:

As a general rule, no specific vehicles are prohibited.

Any occasional vehicle restrictions will be communicated accordingly.

The use of premium tanks, shells and consumables is allowed.
